Emne: Re: TTT rules
Pason69: shouldn't the discussion be more golbal, since the [timeout/resign] problem affects every game.

It's much more of a problem in a Triple than in ordinary round-robins because of the special scoring. In a standard round-robin a timeout in a match is a single match. That's not good but a single resignation or timeout in a Triple tourney is worth 5 ordinary matches. If you had experience of the real thing (ie. TTTs) then you'd know that that's major.

Only way would be to make one timeout spread and let the player lose all his/her games

.. which is what nabla said: "he or she automatically forfeits all games with maximal scores, even the already finished ones" .. which is what I posted in the first place as the official rule: "the TTT rules remove a player who ... they and all their games are no longer part of the tournament (whether that's total removal or just not contributing to the scoring)", except that the scored outcome is zero rather than maximum. But the player does get to play the remaining matches. They are not forfeited, only the score.

Stop woory, be happy!

Lol. There's no need for you to worry about my happiness. I play TTTs at DailyGammon and they work well for the "just for fun" players and also the "competitive for fun" players. I'll continue to enjoy those. My aim here was to report the problem and explain it in sufficient detail that people can begin to understand it. That's done as far as I'm concerned.
